A lecturer's name (4)
I believe the answer is:
alec
This clue might be a double definition.
'a lecturer's' is the first definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'name' is the second definition.
(man's name)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for alec that I've seen before include "Smart boy?" , "Sir -- Guinness, actor" , "Smart man?" , "Boy's name (a smart one?)" , "A smart . . . . is a know-all in lace" .)
